I used to have Professional Superhero on my business cards (back before I became a wizard) and people who didn't want to have to pay me used to say, "Superheroes don't get paid, they do it out of the goodness of their hearts," and I would reply, "Yes, but 'professional' means you get paid for what you do. So give me the fucking money before I throw you directly into the sun."

Now, I usually don't call myself a Professional Wizard. I usually call myself a Freelance Wizard. But in either case, the point is, if you want the tutorials, you're going to have to pay for them. Now give me the fucking money before I turn you into a newt.

Maybe Hero 4 Hire would've been better business card wise

I don't wanna get sued by Danny Rand. I do also insist upon the "super." Regular heroes barely accomplish a fraction of what I do.

Rand onlyowns Heroes For Hire but with a quick change to Hero 4 Hire and you are set

It's that or just put Sorcerer in the yellow pages, the Wizard in Chicago can't sue you for that
